| Hey Steve,
For motors under $100.00, I've used a few of the HiMax models with very good results.
Try the HB3630-1500 and 20 tooth for 1800 rpm and HA3618-2300 and 14 tooth for 1800 rpm
I've been flying the 3618 myself for over a year now, works very nice. For good performance at 1800 rpm or so you woun't need a heat sink. though if you'd really like to push it, (I've been running an 18 tooth on mine and then governing down), its easy enough to put on a heat sink and\or a cooling fan.
Mine certainly has good 3D spirit set up this way..!
Think a few of the new Great Planes Ammo motors will work well too. Not at all expensive; just picked up a 36-50-1500 and a 36-50-1200 myself though have yet to try them.
There are quite a few others in the out runner market these days too but keep in mind if you really want the thing to fly very well you'll need a min of 1300rpm/v for a 3S setup. of course if you go to 4S power, you can have a slower rateing, something like that new Hacker A30-8XL (I think), around 1100 rpm per volt , would be a sweet motor, 23-24 tooth pin.
